Honestly it was a beautiful spot. The house was way more than we needed but it was perfect. Clean, comfy and well equipped. The owner made himself available if we needed anything. We did not. Would stay again if needed.

Great time in our Durham rental.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Small hitch checking in with the key code but quickly resolved on the phone. Met the owner and he was very nice. Convenient to Duke campus, which we appreciated.

The only negative aspect of the stay was that the keyless lock and entrance door did not work. It took numerous text exchanges and attempts before we could get the door open. (Caused us to be late to an event.) Otherwise, everything was excellent: pre-communication; convenience of location to Duke and UNC; cleanliness of home; necessary amenities, etc. Great value. I would stay here again … once the door is fixed. :)

We’re so happy to hear you had a delightful stay! It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate your thoughtful review. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience of the keyless lock. We were updating our wireless lock rentals and hate that it caused problems with your stay. You’re welcome back anytime you’re in Durham and promise to have the locks working! :)
